Cool project! Yeah, need RPM. You might see 10-20k -- but note that its able to spin 150k rpm and then you can replace that pingpong ball with a 2 pound steel bearing. BTW, if you notice some oil leaking out, it's most likely a too restrictive oil return. Most are very large diameter so the oil can drain easily, 3/4" or more.
Genius demo instead of the quite huge turbocompressor system!!!
